Going to need a bit more info about your hardware....

[HiVizMan]

If your system is over-clocked I suggest you go into BIOS and set fail-safe defaults and see if the problem is still present... And please do provide a whole heap more information about your set up.

Have you added any new hardware recently?

My hardware:
AMD 1055t 2.8Ghz
Asus Crosshair IV Formula
ATI Radeon 6670 1GB DDR5 128Mb
1 TB WD 7200RPM
PSU Corsair GS 600W
4GB Corsair Vengeance 1600Mhz

-actually i already flash my bios int 2002, i also take out one by one my hardware and put it back together, try with 1 ram from furthers to nearest CPU but the probs is still same. I have no idea what is going on my PC. I am also kind of newbie to OC my PC. if i want to OC my PC, i only do TURBO V EVO to perform the test. I also no adding new hardware.

Ah thank you for the information. We were all newbie at some point so do not worry about that.

If you set your system to default F5 and enter. Then F10 and enter


Is the problem still there?

What kind of CPU cooler do you have? This sounds like the CPU is over Heating. I would start there and check to make sure it's not by downloading SpeedFan and leaving up on a second monitor while your working on it and or playing the game. Make sure your CPU Temp isn't going over 55c because the CPU shuts down at 60c and will act like your is until the CPU cools down again but too many times of over heat and you will kill it.

Pardon HiVizMan but that version of BIOS doesn't exist for the Crosshair IV line and the 2002 is the latest non-FX BIOS for them also is the version I'm running on my Crosshair IV Formula.
